I haven't been able to fly legally for 18 years now.
So, no. If it's a tail-wheel trainer with an instructor-in-front layout, you'll need to weave down the runway as you can't see forwards until the tail lifts. How's that?

I like the implication that you've been flying for the last 18 years anyway though.

haha, it does a bit doesn't it?
If I piloted a plane now I'd crash in about 45 seconds I reckon. Maybe not. Maybe it's like driving or riding a bike, but the problem with a plane is that if it turns out it isn't, I probably wouldn't get another chance to try again.

I'll bet you £100 that you won't have the guts to fly over city-of-london airspace without a flight-plan/telling-the-athorities-thing-you-have-to-do.
And I bet you £150 that you won't land it in downing street in central london.

Offer expires at midnight.
